(PS: the other two cars on my short list are the ePace and the next generation CRV - neither of which have proved themselves yet! Doooogh, I’d better go and lie down in a darkened room!!)
The CR-V was on my 2015 short-list. It failed to impress. I do think, although UK-manufactured, the CR-V is targeted at the US market. Certainly the engines don't have the output of the XC60 or the Jaguar offerings.
